A non-canonical tricarboxylic acid cycle underlies cellular identity

ABSTRACT: The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is a central hub of cellular metabolism, oxidizing nutrients to generate reducing equivalents for energy production and critical metabolites for biosynthetic reactions. Despite the importance of the products of the TCA cycle for cell viability and proliferation, mammalian cells display diversity in TCA-cycle activity. How this diversity is achieved, and whether it is critical for establishing cell fate, remains poorly understood. Here we identify a non-canonical TCA cycle that is required for changes in cell state. Genetic co-essentiality mapping revealed a cluster of genes that is sufficient to compose a biochemical alternative to the canonical TCA cycle, wherein mitochondrially derived citrate exported to the cytoplasm is metabolized by ATP citrate lyase, ultimately regenerating mitochondrial oxaloacetate to complete this non-canonical TCA cycle. Manipulating the expression of ATP citrate lyase or the canonical TCA-cycle enzyme aconitase 2 in mouse myoblasts and embryonic stem cells revealed that changes in the configuration of the TCA cycle accompany cell fate transitions. During exit from pluripotency, embryonic stem cells switch from canonical to non-canonical TCA-cycle metabolism. Accordingly, blocking the non-canonical TCA cycle prevents cells from exiting pluripotency. These results establish a context-dependent alternative to the traditional TCA cycle and reveal that appropriate TCA-cycle engagement is required for changes in cell state.

Toll-like receptor signaling rewires macrophage metabolism and promotes histone acetylation via ATP-citrate lyase

Project description:TLR activation induces inflammatory responses in macrophages by activating temporally defined transcriptional cascades within the first hours after stimulation. Whether concurrent changes in the cellular metabolism that occur upon TLR activation influence the quality of the transcriptional responses remain unknown. Here we investigated how macrophages adopt their metabolism early after activation to regulate TLR-inducible gene induction. Macrophages increase glucose metabolism and adopt fluxes through the TCA cycle to foster Citrate synthesis. We concomitantly observe activation of ATP-Citrate Lyase (Acly), resulting in augmented acetyl-CoA synthesis and histone acetylation. To investigate which genes and genes classes require ATP-citrate lyase activity for induction we stimulated bone marrow derived macrophages with LPS after ATP-citrate lyase inhibition.

Integration of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle with cAMP signaling and Sfl2 pathways in the regulation of CO2 sensing, filamentation, and virulence in Candida albicans

Project description:Candida albicans is the most common opportunistic fungal pathogen of humans and is also a benign member of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract microbiota. Morphological transitions and metabolic regulation are critical for C. albicans to adapt to the changing host environment. We generated a library of central metabolic pathway mutants in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and investigated the functional consequences of these gene deletions on C. albicans biology. Inactivation of the TCA cycle impairs the ability of C. ablicans to utilize non-fermentable carbon sources and dramatically attenuates cell growth rates under several culture conditions. Through integrations with the Ras1-cAMP signaling pathway and the heat shock factor-type transcription regulator Sfl2, we found that the TCA cycle plays fundamental roles in the regulation of CO2 sensing and filamentation. The TCA cycle and cAMP signaling pathways form a regulatory feedback loop, in which ATP and CO2 may function as molecular linkers. We further demonstrate that inactivation of the TCA cycle leads to lowered intracellular ATP and cAMP levels and thus affects the activation of the Ras1-regulated cAMP signaling pathway. In turn, the Ras1-cAMP signaling pathway controls the TCA cycle through both Efg1- and Sfl2-mediated transcriptional regulation in response to elevated CO2 levels. The protein kinase A (PKA) catalytic subunit Tpk1, but not Tpk2, may play a major role in this regulation. Sfl2 specifically binds to several TCA cycle and filamentation-associated genes under high CO2 conditions. Global transcriptional profiling experiments indicate that Sfl2 is indeed required for the gene expression changes occurring in response to these elevated CO2 levels. Finally, we also demonstrate that several key genes of the TCA cycle are essential for virulence and successful colonization of the GI tract in two mouse infection models.

Operation of a TCA cycle subnetwork in the mammalian nucleus

Project description:<p>Nucleic acid and histone modifications critically depend on tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle for substrates and co-factors. Although a few TCA cycle enzymes have been reported in the nucleus, the corresponding pathways are considered to operate in mitochondria. Here, we show that a part of the TCA cycle is operational also in the nucleus. Using 13C-tracer analysis, we identified activity of glutamine-to-fumarate, citrate-to-succinate, and glutamine-to-aspartate routes in the nuclei of HeLa cells. Proximity labeling mass-spectrometry revealed a spatial vicinity of the involved enzymes with core nuclear proteins. We further show nuclear localization of aconitase 2 and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase in mouse embryonic stem cells. Nuclear localization of the latter enzyme, which produces succinyl-CoA, changed from pluripotency to differentiated state with accompanying changes in the nuclear protein succinylation. Together, our results demonstrate operation of an extended metabolic pathway in the nucleus warranting a revision of the canonical view on metabolic compartmentalization.</p>

ACLY and ACSS2 link nutrient-dependent chromatin accessibility to regulation of CD8 T cell effector responses [RNA-seq]

Project description:Coordination of cellular metabolism is essential for optimal T cell responses. Here, we identify cytosolic acetyl-CoA production as an essential metabolic node for CD8 T cell function in vivo. We show that CD8 T cell responses to infection depend on acetyl-CoA derived from citrate via the enzyme ATP citrate lyase (ACLY). However, ablation of ACLY triggers an alternative, acetate-dependent pathway for acetyl-CoA production mediated by acyl-CoA synthetase short chain family member 2 (ACSS2). Mechanistically, acetate fuels both the TCA cycle and cytosolic acetyl-CoA production, impacting T cell effector responses, acetate-dependent histone acetylation, and chromatin accessibility at effector gene loci. When ACLY is functional, ACSS2 is not required, suggesting acetate is not an obligate metabolic substrate for CD8 T cell function. However, loss of ACLY renders CD8 T cells dependent on acetate (via ACSS2) to maintain acetyl-CoA production and effector function. Together, ACLY and ACSS2 coordinate cytosolic acetyl-CoA production in CD8 T cells to maintain chromatin accessibility and T cell effector function.

Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle Metabolite-Coordinated Biohydrogels Augment Cranial Bone Regeneration Through Neutrophil-Stimulated MSCs Recruitment and Histone Acetylation-Mediated Osteogenesis [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Cranial bone defect is a major clinical challenge that increases the life burden of patients. Tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle metabolites have recently drawn considerable attention in the field of bone tissue regeneration due to their bio-safety, low cost, structural stability, and effectiveness. However, the development of TCA cycle metabolite-modified biomimetic grafts for skull bone regeneration via a facile and general approach remains lacking. Moreover, the mechanism underlying the release of TCA cycle metabolites from biomaterials in immune responses and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) fate (migration and differentiation) remain unknown. Herein, inspired by the Hofmeister effects, we developed a series of TCA metabolite (in the form of sodium salt)-coordinated biomimetic hydrogels (CGG) with strong mechanical and anti-swelling performances. Importantly, the sodium citrate (Na3Cit)-treated CGG hydrogels (CGG-Cit) with the highest mechanical modulus and strength significantly promoted skull bone regeneration in rats and mice. Mechanistically, using a transgenic mouse model, bulk RNA sequencing, and single-cell RNA sequencing, we demonstrated that CGG-Cit promotes Gli1+ MSCs migration via neutrophil-secreted OSM. Our results also indicate that CGG-Cit improved osteogenesis via enhanced H3K9ac modification on osteogenic master genes. Taken together, the immune microenvironments and MSCs fate-regulated biomimetic hydrogels developed herein represent a highly efficient and facile approach toward skull bone tissue regeneration with great potential for bench-to-bedside translation.
